Dixie Road

I would pick and we would sing to the rhythm of that front porch swing The moonlight holds the spotlight that we shared I found new notes on that old guitar, she believed I could be a star She told me that she wanted to be fair She said, I love you more than to hold you down, boy you're glory bound We can't share a world with different dreams So I chased mine and she found hers too, but someone else made hers come true Now I'm a star, but every time I sing My heart goes drifting down a dusty dixie road Taking my mind, back in time L.A. lights burn like hell once you know You left heaven waitin' down the dixie road. Every night I'm in a different place and I'm searching every stranger's face Trying to find the girl that's just not there She's back there in Montegomery and I'm clear across the country But whenever I'm alone I go back there. My heart goes drifting down a dusty dixie road Taking my mind, back in time L.A. lights burn like hell once you know You left heaven waitin' down the dixie road. (Repeat chorus to fade)
